Chapter 236 Cadere Clan
Chapter 236 Cadere Clan
Second Miss came back! She had already healed thoroughly, only having a bit of problems with her energy passages inside her body, but just needs a bit more time. She looked healthy, causing father and son due to clench their hands tightly.
'Why has only she survived?!'
It definitely would be better if his oldest daughter survived!
"I am back, father."
Alise lightly bowed, then looked straight into her father's eyes. Xue Ren had told her that they are going to show some love to her father, but now... he told her to meet him alone... After contemplating for hours, she realized that Xue Ren wants to use her status to enter the treasury to take out swords!
Second Miss knew that Xue Ren planned to do something with Cadere Clan's troops... After thinking, she came to conclusion that Xue Ren wanted to use their deaths to sow the seed of revenge in the hearts of associated troops and use them to attack Violae or Avaras Empire...
If him taking swords from their treasury can save those troops from going straight into death, then it was all fine! That's what second miss thought while facing her father who had face twisted in anger... The wrinkles on his forehead looking scary!
'It's not like we fight with only swords...'
Even her oldest brother who was known for his calmness had a slight anger on his face. The second miss felt slightly sad, but maintaned an expresionless face waiting for her father to open his mouth...
"What happened?"
"It was going as older sister had planned, but..."
Clan head obviously didn't care about her, asking straight about what happened. When Alise told about betrayal, he exploded with anger! He had huge amount of magic fitting the warrior who was at black mid rank.
Second Miss hid the fact that Xue Ren took her older sister and killed her. She put the blame on the demonic men army and the fact that they somehow found out about their location. Alise knew that it was Xue Ren, but looking from his point, it was fine as back then, literally no one believed into each other...
So betrayal was natural occurrence.
"How come only you survived?"
"Everyone was left to themselves, so-"
"You have left your sister and brother?"
Alise bit her lips. It was them who left her, holding everything within herself, she nodded and told without any disturbane in her voice that she left them in order to survive! Seeing her, getting confidence out of nowhere, the father's anger went even deeper.
"And what's the use of you?! You aren't beautiful nor strong! Compared to them, what's your worth?! Your only job was to protect your siblings with that plain body of yours! Even if it meant to block the hell's blades and formations with it!"
"..."
Alise was plain and normal woman. With her looks, no one wanted her, even if it meant becoming closer to Cadere Clan. They couldn't use her to gather attention from other clans, and with her talent, she wasn't that useful on the battlefield as well...
"What's your use? What are you even worth?"
Biting her lips, was all she could do... It was hard to supress the tears from flowing down, her heart already thumping at rapid pace. As her father shouted 'Disappear from my sight', Alice run away from the room, leaving behind a drops of tears...
-
"Don't get angry at father."
As Alise left the room, she immediately laid herself on the wall as she found it hard to stay on her two legs. She was always treated harshly, but it was first time she had heard such cruel words. If not the warmth she had felt from Xue Ren and Moonrose, then she already would've been crying.
"He has, after all, lost his children."
The oldest brother, Nyua spoke in the midst of her cries. She couldn't turn to him and show her weak side, thus, she spoke while doing her best to hide those tears.
"I know. Thank you for consideration, oldest brother."
She was so obedient, Nyua couldn't help but sneer at her. He walked past her, his voice reaching the depths of her heart...
"Your mother was also plain and normal, but she had huge amount of magic even while being kid, so she rose quickly in power... But you... you are so trash that you couldn't even be born with same body as hers."
"..."
-
Xue Ren heard everything. He had one of the twins hidden in Alise's shadow while other one was within his, relaying every word.
'That's what happens when your family is one of the strongest.'
Uris' family was independent from Seven Divine Weapons Alliance. And his wife used to be strict when raising their children, so the bond was thick and strong.
'Look, your mother is weaker than father, but with one slap I can make him obedient like little puppy.'
'Haha! Can you even slap me?'
'If you don't let me slap you, then I will tell everyone how much you had cried while losing virginity.'
'...Please, slap me.'
"It felt good I felt like crying, damn."
"Master?"
"It's nothing. Continue."
Every member of his family who wasn't connected by blood also had strong relationship with Uris as he had saved a lot of people when he was creating his weapon...
The weapon which was made with the help of Divine Blacksmith.
'After all those years, how many of you have survived? How big have your families become?'
Xue Ren closed his eyes.
'And have your children forgotten my grace?'
-
Alise left the household of Cadere Clan. They were in the main city of this clan right now, and she sat down on the bench, letting her tears and cries out without holding back. She looked truly pitiful and weak, Xue Ren felt like it's good time to come out, but!
"It's useless miss!"
The brat came.
He was kid of some general under direct order of Cadere Clan. So his father had prestige and status! He pointed his fingers at grown up woman and instulted her openly, showing cool looks to his friends who were around his age.
"Useless miss who can't even fight! My father has slashed fifty heads of demonic men, and then, took down the leader with other generals! He is the strongest!"
""Waaaa!""
"Father is not from Cadere Clan, but his status is higher than this useless miss!"
"Useless miss!"
"Ugly miss!"
The kids bullied her, but Alise was ignoring them... They were kids after all...
"Hey, brat. How about you shut the fuck up?"
But Xue Ren wasn't that nice.
